Have you ever wanted to cut down on breads and flour? (like me because I am obsessed with all things bakery and had an overload of croissants & baguettes yesterday @ Tartine) May I then suggest a faux pancake. What's in it you ask..

2 EGG WHITES + 1 WHOLE EGG

1/4 TEASPOON VANILLA

1 TEASPOON RAW SUGAR OR OTHER SWEETENER

FRESH FRUIT & NUTS

SMALL BIT OF PURE MAPLE SYRUP

Very simple to make and I think they taste pretty eggy...but good.

The eggs in the crepe-like pancake give you a protein boost. Whisk together the eggs white, whole egg, vanilla, & sweetener in a bowl, pour mixture into a nonstick pan over medium-high heat. when batter is firm on one side, flip it over. Once fully cooked, place on plate, top with fruit and syrup.

***I actually put a little bit of flax oil onto the pan before I put the egg mixture on to cook & it worked great. Also I didn't need maple syrup because I just added a little more agave to the mixture to help sweeten it a bit more. The kids like it and I thought it was a simple and easy way to mix up the usual pancake regimen. Plus it is very healthy.
